If you sat any A level exams with Edexcel you can access a full breakdown on the Results Plus service. You would have been sent an email to your BHASVIC account containing Edexcel login details.

The breakdown of individual exam paper results will be emailed to your BHASVIC email address. The college will not be able to provide a breakdown of results to you by telephone or via any other email address because we need to verify your identity.
All queries will only be dealt with via the Exam Service Forms below. Please be patient about any requests for information from us and do not come in person to the college to collect or query exam results (if you do, we will still ask you to submit an online request and will resolve your request in chronological order).

Section 5: Review of Marking
If you are considering requesting a review of marking because you are dissatisfied with your examination grade, please bear in mind the following:
- Consider your predicted grades, ongoing assessment provided by your teacher(s), mock exam results and any advice or expectations you had about what you were realistically going to achieve. If your result is way off what you expected and how well you think the exam(s) in the subject went, then you may be right to consider a review of marking.
- Exam boards will only change a grade due to errors, or if marking is out of tolerance when reviewing papers. Reviewers will not re-mark scripts; the service is a post-results review of the original marking to ensure that the agreed mark scheme has been applied correctly. Adjustments will not be made due to minor differences in professional opinion (e.g. slightly harsh or slightly lenient marking).
- Your marks could be lowered following the outcome of a review and your overall grade could go down.
- Requests for a review of marking is expensive (see below).
The services above are available only for written exam papers.
Coursework and practical elements cannot be reviewed and have already been checked and moderated.
There are two levels of service for reviews of marking - priority and non-priority. Choose priority if a Further or Higher Education place is dependent upon the outcome of a review of marking - the exam board have 15 days to respond. The non-priority service is open for longer, but the exam boards have a longer time to respond, up to 20 days.

Refunds for review of marking - you will be provided with a refund if your grade goes up, however, this is done by each ‘order’, therefore if you request all 3 papers at the same time then you would get a refund for all 3, however if you requested 1 paper at a time then the refund would only apply for the paper(s) for which the grade increased.
Section 6: Appeals
If you want to appeal your final grade to the exam board, then you must have completed a breakdown of results, a copy of your exam paper and then a review of marking. Any application for appeal would need to be supported by BHASVIC. There is no guarantee that an appeal process would be concluded in time for university entry. To raise an appeal, please contact us at results24@bhasvic.ac.uk.
Section 7: Special Consideration frequently asked questions
Was my Special Consideration request submitted to the exam board? Yes, all requests we submitted on behalf of our students to the Exam Boards.
What adjustment did the exam board make? Exam Boards do not provide this information to you or to the college.
In hindsight, I realise I was disadvantaged when I took an exam but did not apply for Special Consideration. Can this now be considered by the exam board as part of a review of my grade? Special Consideration applications are no longer possible, and your only recourse is to either accept the grade you have or retake the A Level. Reviews of grades are only relevant where you think your paper may have been incorrectly marked by the examiner.
I was absent from one or more of my exam papers and do not understand how this has affected my grade, please can I receive some advice? The best way to access this is to email our exams team results24@bhasvic.ac.uk. or, if you know who your Guidance Manager was, they may be able to help. Please message them via Teams.
